Gong Li was once again beautiful in this movie. No this is not a action packed movie, this movie is basically how it is described a women in love. I enjoyed this movie, I did get a bit confused in the end. Nice chick flick.

Very good film, you get to see some beautiful countryside of China. Movie was a little hard to follow at first but was able to understand it even with the sub-titles.

I found the movie too confusing. Whatever happened to good old-fashioned linear story-telling? Who did Zhou Yu end up with? But it's good to see a romantic story from the female point of view for a change with none of the predictable Western formulas, and Gong Li was beautiful.
